Deat listers, Here is a link to the American War Dead maintained by the American Battle Monuments Commission, responsible for operating 24 US military cemeteries abroad, lists onine 172,218 Americans who lost their lives in World War II. This site includes the names of 78,976 Missing In Action or lost or buried at sea and 93,242 buried at the ABMC-run cemeteries. It does not contain the names of the 233,181 Americans returned to the US for burial. A name search produces a table of names with rank, serial number, date of death, and place of burial. Clicking on a name leads to a memorial page with additional information, such as the person's branch of service, unit, state in which he or she entered service, awards, and exact burial location or whether missing in action. I have found one of my uncles listed here. http://www.usabmc.com/abmc45.htm The ABMC site has similar searchable listings for 33,714 World War I dead and for 37,333 Korean War dead.
